Flicker Of Light
a flicker of light
claims to be the way to life
why must it flicker
light never flickers
darkness of the beholder
obscures line of sight
claims to be the way to life
why must it flicker
light never flickers
darkness of the beholder

Life
once I fall asleep
I shall awaken to life
death shall be no more
I am forgiven
my praises shall be given
to he who is life
I shall awaken to life
death shall be no more
I am forgiven
my praises shall be given
to he who is life

How Many Times
I offer my trust
how many times shall my trust
be taken from me
trust taken from me
how many times shall my trust
be offered to man
how many times shall my trust
be taken from me
trust taken from me
how many times shall my trust
be offered to man

The Days Of Old Return
Oh LORD hear my cry
may the days of old return
when I heard your voice
I meditated
hearing the sound of your voice
I wrote down your words
your face shown brightly
for my eyes were opened wide
to see your beauty
and my soul cried out
in response to your presence
words of praise written
my soul continued
writing the words given me
face to face we spoke
here I am my God
the days of old shall return
my hands are outstretched
I'm meditating
I shall...
may the days of old return
when I heard your voice
I meditated
hearing the sound of your voice
I wrote down your words
your face shown brightly
for my eyes were opened wide
to see your beauty
and my soul cried out
in response to your presence
words of praise written
my soul continued
writing the words given me
face to face we spoke
here I am my God
the days of old shall return
my hands are outstretched
I'm meditating
I shall...

Rejected
she weeps bitterly
her children do not listen
hardened hearts know best
truth cannot be found
amongst the darkness within
the light has gone dim
the truth is spoken
but her children's backs are turned
away from her voice
she weeps loudly
oh if they should only turn
a flame would be seen
and they would return
home with loving arms waiting
to embrace them all
her children do not listen
hardened hearts know best
truth cannot be found
amongst the darkness within
the light has gone dim
the truth is spoken
but her children's backs are turned
away from her voice
she weeps loudly
oh if they should only turn
a flame would be seen
and they would return
home with loving arms waiting
to embrace them all

Remain
here I am my LORD
let not your voice be silenced
I remain bowed down
here I am my LORD
open the eyes of my heart
to see the unseen
hear my voice dear child
remain faithful to the LORD
to see the unseen
let not your voice be silenced
I remain bowed down
here I am my LORD
open the eyes of my heart
to see the unseen
hear my voice dear child
remain faithful to the LORD
to see the unseen
